Its been a busy entertainment week with the Golden Globes announcing next year’s nominees amongst other things.

The nominations do have some good picks and a few surprises and snubs as most would expect, but naturally these are more evident if one hasn’t seen most of the films or TV’ shows that are out, something of which is difficult even for people in the industry or who are die-hard fans. Not to mention that the Golden Globes nominations have a different view on things compared to the industry focused and more American Oscars. As the Golden Globes is the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. So their tastes and choices will have a different touch to them.

The biggest surprise pick most will notice is the inclusion of ‘Black Panther’ in Best Motion Picture Drama and also ‘Mary Poppins Returns’ in Best Motion Picture Comedy or Musical, especially when more complete films such as ‘Widows’, ‘The Death of Stalin’ and ‘A Quiet Place’ could have been chosen instead.

Interesting enough, the Globes were so keen to nominate ‘Black Panther’ for Best Picture that they forgot Michael B. Jordan to be nominated for best Supporting Actor in his role as the villain of that film. Additionally, there was no love for Toni Collette for her lead role in ‘Hereditary’ or Sam Elliot for his supporting role in “A Star is Born’ amongst many others. It just goes to show that we shouldn’t put a lot of stock in these Award shows as they will eventually get something wrong like it or not.
